MN Finish Carpenter | Home Remodeling Part 2

Finish Carpentry Services MN

The baby boom generation has been the most prolific home-buying generation in history. Now the Boomers are entering retirement and more than ever are reevaluating their current living situation. They understand the financial, social and quality of life advantages that living in their home forever can bring. The same goes for Aging in Place. They anticipate that injuries, chronic physical conditions or natural aging can get in the way of independent living. They want to adapt their home, not spend money moving to the home.

Remodeling With The Future In Mind

So, if you’ve been waiting for the perfect time to do some remodeling, now might be the time to look at your home with your future needs in mind. Instead of seeing it as just a resale tool, make it a comfortable and functional place to live for both now and in the future.

Ignore the debate about what to call this kind of remodeling (universal design, better living, aging-in-place, accessible, etc.). More contractors are making it standard practice to design spaces that fit their clients at all ages and all stages of life. We just say that good design lasts a long time whatever their future holds!

Your cabinets play the biggest role in your kitchen design, helping set the style and tone for the heart of your home, so they are a good place to start. A Minnesota Finish Carpenter can utilize “Universal Design” principals to incorporate beautiful designs that accommodate everyone’s accessibility needs.

Remodeling with this concept not only updates your home and enhances the time you are able to live there, but will retain and increases your home’s resale value because anyone of any age can benefit from them. This might be the moment to finally redo your kitchen, or finish your basement for that granny apartment you’ve been thinking about.
